LONDON, June 8 (Reuters) - European equity futures fell on Wednesday, with
markets impacted by mixed Chinese economic data, while the World Bank also cut
its economic growth forecast.

Futures on the Euro STOXX 50, Germany's DAX, France's CAC
and Britain's FTSE were all down by between 0.1-0.3 percent.

Chinese dollar-denominated exports fell 4.1 percent in May from a year
earlier, compared with an expected drop of 3.6 percent, and this weighed on the
minds of some investors, although imports fell less than forecast and China's
central bank still saw economic growth of 6.8 percent this year.

The World Bank also slashed its 2016 global growth forecast to 2.4 percent
from the 2.9 percent estimated in January due to stubbornly low commodity
prices, sluggish demand in advanced economies, weak trade and diminishing
capital flows.
